Recruiting as of 5/15/25

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Made a quick tweak.  TWO available scholarships now.  Elliot and a grad transfer?

Sounds good to me. Or as TAMU said, even a traditional transfer and a grad. Wonder if the Elliot offer is available for him to take at any time.

There used to be an MU fan that tracked MU commit stats, but haven't seen it last couple years. Anyone know if he still does it and what the link is?

Ah 1 and a 2 and a 3... - L. Welk

1st semester transfer done--- Shrimp is on  the barbie.

2 guard freshman in the works

3 wing Grad transfer-  will have to wait and see who becomes available.

Next step is to get ET's friend to phone home.....

ET's friend, played by Henry Thomas, ELLIOT...

ET's friend, played by Henry Thomas, ELLIOT...

Gotcha. Honestly haven't seen that movie since I was a kid.

Figured it have to do with Elliot. Wonder if his offer can be accepted right away or if Wojo wants to see what transfers become available first.

Well he says we want to get him to phone home so.....

We kidnapped him???

That part I could not ascertain, maybe locked in a dorm room.  Still working it in mind.  My guess is the clue was just in the name, Elliott.
Which was pretty cool itself, just knew it immediately since a movie buff.

Now we have the one in the hand cliche, I give up.

Edited due to BD's below post

guys and gals--  having one recruit now versus hoping for 2 grad transfers....  not many schools get two senior grad transfers especially solid to good ones.   Louisville is the only recent one I know of.

Yep, Big Time.

I was moreso referring to a traditional transfer (there will surely be tons of interesting ones) and a grad transfer.

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

Elliott would be a nice pickup.  Very long and athletic but thin.  Would be perfect for a redshirt as BD alluded to earlier.

Then take a homerun swing at a grad transfer.  A high scoring wing guard or long, athletic switchable that can score, rebound, and defend.  If Wojo can't connect, bank it.

So grad transfer or not, that sets up 2018 with 3 spots.  Bailey is one.  Joey Hauser and a PG should be the priorities for the other two.

Thinking the redshirt is Eke.  Gives him the chance to improve his skills.

Eke would make sense too but I would be nervous about having only 2 bigs for the first 10 games.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

If we get a grad transfer and Elliott I would redshirt both Elliott and Eke.

[MU82]

Remember when some Scoopers were worried that Wojo's treatment of Wally would drive away potential recruits. Here you have a big guy who specifically cited Wojo's work with Henry.

I guess they're easily fooled by smoke and mirrors Down Under.

[Dr. Blackheart]

Sam, Matt, Theo, Sacar make four.  I think Sacar could step into the 4 spot. 

[tower912]

Cain is 6'7.   Even if Eke redshirts, the first 10 games will feature more size than this year.   

[brewcity77]

Louisville is the only recent one I know of.

UConn with Shonn Miller and Sterling Gibbs the same season.

[Herman Cain]

Ike is going to surprise a lot of people. He is the real thing.

6'4 1/2" PFs in the BE don't really excite me.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

6'4 1/2" PFs in the BE don't really excite me.

It wouldn't be in the big east. Just the first eight games of the season

[wadesworld]

6'4 1/2" PFs in the BE don't really excite me.

Guess BE Player of the Years aren't overly exciting then.
